Shapiro, Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics, 5th Edition, John Wiley & Sons, 2003. (Note: You might want to save this textbook because it will be used in ME4315.) Computer Usage: The MATLAB program (available on PC's in room MRDC 2105) will be used for performing some of the numerical computations needed for this course. Grading Policy: Quizzes.......................................... 1 Midterm………………………… Final Exam...................................… Homework………………………. 35% 25% 35% 8% (3% extra credit) Evaluation Methods • Quizzes: There will be five (5) scheduled short (each 20-30 minutes long) quizzes each covering the topics indicated above it in the course outline. You may also be given unannounced (pop) quizzes at any time in class. If you are not present for the quiz, it is recorded as a zero grade but your lowest quiz grade will be dropped. • Homework: The homework sets assigned in the course outline are for your benefit only and will not be collected. You are highly encouraged to do the homework problems on your own as the quiz problems will be very similar (if not identical) to the homework problems. Solutions to the selected problems will be posted on the course’s web page. • Other Assignments: Throughout the term several (about 2-3) assignments involving case studies of real-world thermal systems will be given. These assignments will be collected and graded. The final (open-ended) assignment will require you to analyze a real-world application of the materials learned in the course and publish your findings in web format.

All items in the Honor Code under the topic of Academic Misconduct apply to this class. In particular, the following items are considered to be cheating: • Submission of an assignment that is copied from another student • Copying from another student's paper during an exam • Alteration of graded tests submitted for regarding Academic misconduct will be reported to the Vice President for Student Affairs as described in the General Catalog. Class Policies • If you miss a class, you are responsible for all course materials covered, all class notes given, all assignments made, etc. • Makeup tests will not be given unless prior approval is arranged and an official Institute excuse is presented • Cheating will not be tolerated and will be reported to the Dean of Students according to the rules governing academic honesty given in the current Institute • Disruptive actions in the classroom such as talking, laughing, continual late arrival, etc., will not be tolerated Letter grades for the course will be based on a statistical distribution. The students with final grades higher than the class average will receive a grade of B or
